An Enthusiastic Contempo
rary.
The Chattooga News gays:
“Rome, after bragging for three or
four weeks about the good effects
of prohibition, has now awakened
to the fact that men still drink in
prohibition cities. Rome is learn
ing what the balance of the world
already knows.” Yes, when Rome
and Floyd county went “dry” they
fully expected whisky would be sur
reptitiously smuggled in from Chat
tooga and Gordon counties, which
still cling to the “flesh pots” of
that which causes nine-tenths of
the crime, pauperism, widows' tears
and orphan's woes of our land, and
wrings from the tax-payers great
drafts from their pockets to pay)
for the excessive court litigations I
year in and year out. But we have!
a mayor not to be fooled with on :
this liquor business, as Chattooga
has been apprised of recently, in
his demands upon a Summerville
mail-carrier of a deposit of S2OO in
the city treasury, or 30 days break
ing rock “pro bouo publico,” for
bringing your devilish stuff in our
midst. Try it again, won't you, and
our determined mayor will go for
you to the tune of SSOO and twelve
months in the chaingang. Three
times three cheers for Mayor Ayer.
—Rome Clipper.
Now, we assure our angry con-;
temporary that we haven't sent, nor ;
have we caused to be sent, any
whisky to a single one of Rome's;
thirsty citizens, ami, therefore ■
Rome’s determined mayor will not
just yet fine us SSOO nor send us to
the chaingang twe’ve months, one
or both. As much distorted as
Rome’s prohibition ordinances are
they do not authorize even a deter-:
mined mayor to send any one to the
chaingang more than six months;
I for a single violation, and it would ‘
) take a very determined and a very!
lawless mayor to impose a sentence j
of twelve months, as the Clipper-
I would have any Che believe.
i So far ns is known Chattooga.
county has not smuggled any
whisky into the city of Rome. That;
citizens of Rome have become;
thirsty and have sent to Chattooga
county for whisky is true, but if
this is smuggling Rome is the guil-)
tv party and not Chattooga county. )
The people of Chattooga county
are as a whole law abiding and)
scorn to resort to smuggling to I
evade the law. No; the sins of I
Rome can’t be justly charged to)
Chattooga county.
Now, then, a word to the excited
(‘lipper: When the waves of the
Atlantic and Pacific oceans by a
mighty effort rise up out of their
beds and kiss each other across the
highest peaks of the Rocky and
Alleghany mountains then Rome
will be a prohibition town. Then
your citizens will be thirsty no
more, and then no more- will you be
grieved and your soul be vexed at
their violation of prohibition laws,
i Do not get excited—’o excited that;
1
you want to send us, who are inno- 1
I vent of violating Rome’s prohibi- -
tion laws, to the chaingang twelve |
i months, when ti e hi diest penaltv i
; only six months—and watch for
' the signs of the waters of the
oceans, for by them you will know
when prohibition goes into effect.
) Cleveland was unanimously nom-,
) inated for President by the St. Lou
is convention last week. Thurman)
was nominated for vice-President!
on the first ballot, receiving 712 |
votes, while Gray received 97 and)
Black 32. Before the conclusion of
the ballot it was moved to make!
Thurman’s nomination unanimous,'
which was done. The platform
adopted is in harmony with the!
President’s message, and strongly;
declares fora reduction of the tarii'.
The Vi ills bill was unanimously en-;
dorsed and its passage recommend-)
cd. Thus squarely committed to a!
reduction of the tariff and with |
Cleveland and Thurman as leaders
the Democracy appeals for endorse-,
ment to the people. From the out
look now there is not much doubt
but that in November it wili be I
forthcoming.

Foul Play.
Thci'c are many ways in which I
malicious pei'sons can give vent to
that trait of character and still not
lay themselves open to a flat-footed
charge of slander or make them
selves liable for damages. The
most complete illustration of this
proposition is found in the Atlanta
Constitution of date of June 13th.
That paper, while professing to be
friendly to Cleveland, deals the
most powerful blow yet aimed at
him. It is intended as an annihil
ator, and unless warded off by a
timely exposure, cannot fail to have
a most appalling effect. In its is
sue of above named date the Con
stitution says many flattering things
; J J 00
■of Cleveland, and at first glance
; any one would Conclude that it was
ready to fight, bleed and die for
him. But this is a delusion made
all the more reprehensible by the
mode adopted in carrying it out. In
this paper is a picture intended to
represent the President. And such
a picture! It makes the President
look like a Berkshire hog, an ou
rangoutang, a monkey—anything!
in fact except the great President
of this glorious country. Several
life-long Democrats have come into
this office, viewed the picture in
astonishment, and, when told who
; it was intended to represent, turned
) sadly away, muttering, “I can’t vote
for s.ich a looking man as that!”
The picture will deprive Cleveland )
of the support of many such men as
) these unless their minds are freed
from the idea that it is a correct
likeness. The picture, however,
does not resemble the President;
neither does the President resemble
the picture, its appearance in the
! Constitution is the result of a deep
laid plan, the diabolicalism of which
was probably never equaled by the
! conclaves of darkness in its gloom
) iest councils, to stub Cleveland in
i the house of his supposed friends.
It is as complete a case of foul play
as was ever originated, and we
brand it as such. We are here to
expose such schemes. Our facili
ties in this line are unsurpassed,
and those who want to keep posted
) as to the tricks employed to defeat
the will of the people and turn this
great country over to the Republi
) cans had better subscribe for the
News without delay.
J. C. CLEMENTS.
The following is the closing par
! agraph of a speech recently deliv
ered by lion. J. C. Clements in con-
I do not object to the incidental
protection afforded by necessary
taxation, but the present high and
prohibitory tax is leading to the
aggregation of money in the hands
of a few, which is not production of
wealth, but simply the transfer of
it. The laborer, the man who toils
and takes wealth out of the earth,
is the man who produces it. It is
; not produced by a system of trans
-1 fer, absorption and accumulation.
! Yet this is pointed to as evidence
) of thrift and prosperity, because it
results in great manufactures at
particular places, forgetting that
the masses of the penile from whom
it has been taken are lingering and
struggling along for a bare sub
sistence. IVhtit is the effect? The
result is that wc have already inau-
Iguratedin this .country a system)
i which will male the debtor class, in)
the North as well as in the South, I
■ dependent alike. Money is loaned
; upon mortgage on real estate!
) through money-loaning associations ;
'all over the country. The rate of j
; interest, lai ge itself, is doubled by!
: commissions paid to men who ne-;
gotiate the loans. These mortgages ;
; rest upon men who have little farms |
| without other means than their j
) labor to pay the indebtedness, and
) who, under this system of protec
' tion, get. deeper in debt each year
;as the interest accumulates. The
result will be that this class will be
turned out homeless, and the real
estate of the country, as well as the
money, will he largely aggregated
in the hands of the favored few
1 through a system of oppression up
|on those 'who will become pauper
) tenants like the tenants in Ireland.
Sorrow is transformed by time
I into a pleasant memory. We look
[on the face of a dear one for the
last time with intense anguish; but
when there has been time for grief
to be assuaged, we recall all the
good qualities of the departed and
muse on them till the thought be
comes a pleasure. Aiany a middle
aged or old person will admit that
the memory of one child who died
in the lcve>ine.:.> of early youta is
now more agreeable than the at
tractions of yoy one that lived to!
full maphpnb -><l womanhood.

Purify Your Blood.
Bodily and mental health depends
upon a healthy condition of the
blood. The blood particularly in
the spring and summer months,
becomes clogged with impuriti'. s,
which poison and generate disease.
A harmless blood purifier is nee s
sary to restore a healthy tone. 'Die
best purifier and tonic known is
Swift’s Specific (S. S. S.). Os its
wonderful purifying and tonic pow
ers we give a few testimonials:
Mr. AVm. A. Siebold, with G o.
B. Rowell <fc Co., 10 Spruce Street,
New Yo'k,writes: “I feel it my duty
for the benefit of others who may
be afflicted as I was, to write you
this letter, which you can use in
any way you choose. I suffered
great pain from boils, all over mv
neck; I could net turn my hi .id
[without acute 'pain. After tni:::r
I all the usual remedies, and finding
no relief, I used one bottle of S. S.
S., and very soon I was entirely >•■•-
) lieved of my “Job’s Comfort'. : .'’
) Now not a sign of my affliction can
be seen.”
Mr. M. S. Hamlin, AA’inston, N.
. C. writes: “I use it every spring. ;t
always builds me up, giving me -
) peti e and digestion, and enabling
me to stand the hot summer day.;.
On using it I soon become strong of
body and easy of mind.”
Mr. C. E. Mitchell, AVest 23d St.
Ferry, New York, writes: “I weigh
ed 116 pounds when I began taking
your medicine, and now 152 pounds.
I would not be without S. S. S. for
several times its weight in gold.”

Uniform kindness and politene.-s

thought of it often and wondered
why it was, but until we made it
our business to sec for ourselves
we were in the dark. AVe have
reference to J. AY. Pitts, the lead 'r
of low prices, short profits ar. I
quick sales. Mr. Pitts treats every
one politely, sells them his goods
at close figures, has a kind wo-.'l

SCROFULA
It is that impurity in tho blood, which, ac
cumulating in the glands of the neck, pro»
duces unsightly lumps or swellings; which
causes painful running sores on the arms,
: legs, or feet; which dcvelopes ulcers in the
eyes, cars, or nose, often causing blindness or
I deafness; which is tho origin of pimples, can
j ccrous growths, or the many other manifesta
' tions usually ascribed to “humors:” which,
fastening upon the lungs, causes consumption
and death. Being the most ancient, it is tho
most general of all diseases or affections, for
very few persons are entirely free from it.
